Re: Any Photo Annuals arrived yet?

[DagT]

Thank you!

I got mine a couple of days ago and, actually, in these days we are receiving a 
Annual Norwegian book with a lot more pictures but not close to the quality of 
this book,  both regarding the design, text and the pictures. As always I´m 
honored to be allowed to contribute :-)

Re: New Member

[DagT]

I learned from a taxfree shop in an airport (I think it was Heathrow) that 
Lagavulin distillery had had a fire, and lost some of it´s production. It 
caused some frustration and higher prices.

Re: People's thoughts on Adobe CC photoshop

[DagT]

I use PS CC (now 2018). 

It works OK, and especially after I got the K-1 and the kamera and lens 
profiles were updated pretty fast. Too often a camera upgrade earlier meant an 
updated PS too, so if you change cameras (too) often the price of the CC is not 
that much.

On the other hand I´m not an advanced PS user, so I can´t answer any 
complicated questions :-)

Yes the PDML jury has excellent taste :-)

And, with the theme «Borders» and some recent history I think it was great to 
get a chance to remind some people of previous of borders and walls.

Thanks Alan!

Sorry, it´s not my city, but it is very nice. I hadn´t been there before but 
got a chance to go for a trip with some Norwegian Pentaxians. One of them had

good beer :-)

PESO - K-1 in Krakow

[DagT]

I had a trip with K-1 in Krakow last week with FA*24, FA31, FA43, FA77 and 
FA135.

K-1 is great, although a little heavy when you walk 20km a day taking pictures. 
The 2.8-zooms would be too much. The files are great, and I love the two wheels 
and possibility to lock some of the buttons on the back. No more unintentional 
adjustments of the white balance :-)

  
The Limited lenses were as expected, but I´m a little disappointed over FA24 
and FA135 wide open. Stopped down a couple of steps they are good.

Pictures here

Re: pentax/tokina 24-70/2.8

[DagT]

I´ve tried it on K-3 and at least in that format it is great. «Kenspo» on 
Pentaxforums is almost a neighbour and he loves it for rock conserts and 
models. Very good flare control and sharpness. We will see soon if it is works 
on K-1 he claims to be the first to get one (or two).

Re: PESO - Carnival in Venice

[DagT]

A very late thank you! After Venice I have been to Belgrade, London and 
Stavanger, mostly working so I haven´t had time to think much about pictures. 
:-(

I think the pictures on the web site is about 10% of the total number of 
exposures, so if I don´t suddenly get tome to blurb something and go through it 
all again this is it.

Re: PESO - Carnival in Venice

[DagT]

Thanks again :-)

I see your point, and I think the things you mention are the ones I like about 
the results. I think maybe my appreciation of silence is helpful in omitting 
the unnecessary details, but the the crowds and the staging was a bit too much. 
There are several other carnivals other places, not as staged, maybe not as 
spectacular costumes, but probably more natural and playful.  It would be nice 
to try to take the same kind of pictures under those conditions.

And I really appreciate your comments to these pictures. It is something I can 
use under other conditions too :-)

 Venice was an interesting place. The models were dressed to be

 other photographers. If the model notice you they will give you a card so 
 you could send them the pictures.
 
 Actually it was nice to be there with Pentax with some Limited lenses,

Re: PESO - Carnival in Venice

[DagT]

Well Ann, you remind me of a friend who said this when he heard where I was 
going: What´s a minimalist like you going to do in a place like that :-)

And my wife agrees with you.

But it was an interesting experience. I did try to work on the backgrounds and 
what you could see of the eyes. To steal the small moments that were not 
completely staged, and while I like the results I don´t think I´ll do it again. 
I prefer a bit more silence.

 Dag -
 I love your minimalist photography and your photos in general but I only did 
 a fast skim of these - a little cramped for time here still trying to catch 
 up on stuff from idleness recently...
 
 as photography, it's your usual excellent talent shining through -
 but the scene you encountered in Venice would have sent me running in the 
 other direction had I been there on two levels, lots of other photographers 
 around and extremely madeup subjects that come off to me
 as somewhat sinister in flavor. Like clowns.
 
 back to your sweet kids please :-)

 Venice was an interesting place. The models were dressed to be photographed 
 and wanted to pose, so the main problem was to avoid all the other 
 photographers. If the model notice you they will give you a card so you 
 could send them the pictures.
 
 Actually it was nice to be there with Pentax with some Limited lenses, among 
 lots  of large lenses, flashes and tripods. I didn´t get very much attention 
 (and therefore very few cards) but for the most part managed to got the 
 pictures I wanted.

 professor who wouldn't blink when i showed up at his office in bare feet and

 punch cards, and it felt pretty old-fashioned

Nice, i learned Simula in 1984, but as a Norwegian invention (the first with 
object oriented programming?) I never realized that it was used much abroad. 
Other universities in Norway used Fortran.

Punch cards were still used by some, but i remember a few years later the last 
secretary who had been a specialist on punch cards was retired. It was a bit 
strange.

Thank you Christine, and Boris, Rick, Bulent, Bob, Alan and Dan og course.

It is very nice seeing them grow up. Still children, starting to be men. Life 
is still a mystery and it is getting even more difficult to understand what is 
going on. Taking the pictures is also getting more difficult, as they see it as 
more personal. The good thing is that the oldest is also a bit proud of the

Having followed Minkkinen for ages I would never accuse him of anything like 
that, but of course, there are always those who would.

Involving others is a fairly new thing for him, an extention og the self

 there, arguably one (mis-)step removed from Terry Richardson.
 
 I do now fully understand how the photographer/model relationship is
 based on trust and intent. If both parties agree on boundaries and
 establish trust, then the session will be creative and enjoyable. But
 even still there could be doubts in the minds of outside observers --
 after all, they aren't privy to the intents or established boundaries.

 Well, of course we do.  The advertising industry uses this as the basis for 
 selling us things.  And I'm sure that how attractive I find the model weighs 
 in to how much time I'll spend looking at any particular photograph (not 
 necessarily limited to nudes).
 
 I've only done nude photography once; a studio session with a group of 
 photographers back in my university days.  I'm not sure all the photographers 
 even had film in their cameras ...  I only considered two of my shots worth 
 remembering; one was about the same pose as the 'flip' shot posted recently, 
 although without the tutu; the other was a model's-eye-view of the cluster of 
 photographers pointing cameras in her direction.
 
 Apart from that, I believe the only other 'figure study' I can recall was a 
 shot I took on Bourbon Street when I was there for SIGGRAPH 2000.  I intended 
 to use the image as the thumbnail and/or low-key backdrop for a web page 
 showing other shots from that trip (with the middle two zeroes of '2000' in 
 the title being provided by the obvious features), but never got round to 
 creating that gallery; in fact I'd forgotten it until my memory was jogged by 
 the thread here about a trip to New Orleans.

I have done nude photography five times (I think), and once with a male model. 
Trying to work with a male model was interesting, but frustrating as I had a 
hard time finding the lines and shapes interesting enough to photograph. It was 
not the sexual part as the pictures were partially abstract, but the beautiful 
curves I would look for on a female mode were impossible to find so I had to 
try something different.

I agree with Mark. 

Also I don´t agree that men are looking at women as objects when they take nude 
photos. We may be programmed to this but I think most men look at women with 
fascination. Not necessarily sexual, but graceful, beautiful or lots of other

ones that fascinates us the most.

So men will prefer to take pictures of women. Maybe the women should get better 
at photographing men, but of course we are not as interesting...

 Of course it can.  Just not nearly as well or in the same fashion.
 Not all that the HD coatings does is anti-reflective.
 I suspect some of it is color-correcting as were the different SMC
 variations.
 Collin, you can put the best filter in the world on an uncoated lens, and you 
 will get flare because of internal reflections. All a coated element can do 
 is keep reflections off of the element it is applied to at bay. Once the 
 light has moved to another piece of glass, it's a whole new ball game.
 Lens coatings are primarily for flare protection. Any color correcting they 
 do is secondary, though possibly by design.

Or you may see it this way:
Independent of the lens quality a filter will add two more reflecting surfaces 
reducing the overall quality. How much each of these surfaces reflect the light 
and reduce the quality will depend on the coating. Uncoated each surface 
reflect about 4% og the passing light. A surface with a good coating will 
reflect a lot less, but I don't have the numbers of the HD-coating.

So the best solution is always to go without a filter if you don't want to 
protect the front lens.

 I agonised over it because I very much wanted a silver K3 but
 didn't see a use for the grip. In the end I bit the bullet and
 ordered the silver kit mostly because I hated the way the FA24, 43
 and 77 (all silver) look on my black K5. I guess there is a risk
 that the Silver K3 will be available later by itself but as I'm
 not paying a premium (apart from the cost of the grip I may not
 use) I don't feel too ripped off. In fact, like most Australians,
 I am rejoicing that we pay the same price as the US customers.
 
 I would rather have waited for solid reviews but if the silver
 kits sell out and there is no rerun then I would be much more
 annoyed. I know they are calling it a limited edition of 2000, but
 that might just mean there will only be 2000 editions of the
 complete kit,  so the only truly limited piece might be the
 leather strap. That's just a guess, but I can't understand why
 they would bother bringing out silver versions of the new HD
 limiteds and then have so few potential buyers.

 Hi
 Some guy at Flickr said that he wanted the silver version,
 without the grip, which he didn't need. (The siver version is
 only available with the grip included).
 
 I think that the Silver edition actually is quite cheep. You get
 the grip and one extra battery and a leather strap for appr. 250
 Euro more. That's a very reasonable pricetag. I usually pay 250
 Euro for the grip alone - no silver, no leather strap and no
 extra battery.
 
 I guess I'll order the silver version very soon - it's simply
 beautiful!
 And I happen to own three silver limited lenses - 31 mm, 43 mm,
 77 mm. They af VERY nice, beautifully manufactured lenses, that
 can produce very fine images.
 
 It's funny, that they only make 2000 copies of the Pentax K-3
 Silver edition.
 I guess they are all gone in early November!Regards

Re: Old/new lenses on FF (was K3 problem using flash and AA)

[DagT]

Purple fringing was a problem with A*135 on *istD, but it seals to be less on 
cmos sensors. It works great on K-5.

 Purple fringing as in sensor bloom happens in high contrast areas, I suspect 
 that in some ways, some very good on film, older lenses are too good for 
 digital. They achieve apparent high sharpness by emphasizing contrast which 
 under many conditions exacerbates bloom.

 Practical experience shows that the best old FF lenses are quite decent
 performers on APS-C sensors, sometimes comparable to good 'digital' lenses
 (at least up to 12-16 megapixels), except for a typical higher CA and purple
 fringing.  That's because you get rid of the weaker part of their image
 field. Oh, and that only applies to focale lengths around 35mm or longer
 (most if not all older wide-angle lenses are much overperformed by current
 APS-C digital sensors).
 On the other hand, I still have to find a single 'analog' lens which is
 comparable to newer lens designs on FF sensors with a pixel count of 24 or
 36 MP.
 Heck, even most FF digital designs cannot cope with the D800 sensor! Sure
 you can use whatever lens you like on a modern FF DSLR (provided you can fit
 and focus it), but don't expect to exploit their potential.

 My Reply : I disagree with regards to full frame. As long as the corner
 performance of the FF lenses
 matches 2/3 of the performance of the APSC lenses the overall system
 performance of FF will
 be equal to or greater than the Aps performance.  Generally speaking,
 you dont need as high a
 performance FF lenses for better overall system performance than apsc.
 Its a larger format, it has
 more overall lines of resolution even if the absolute line pairs/mm is
 lower.
 
 
 Regard no AA filter, aliasing occurs when the incoming spatial
 frequencies are too fast
 for the sampling. With a high resolution sensor and cheaper lower
 resolution lenses,
 NO aliasing will likely occur. Aliasing is more likely to occur with
 super high spec ultra
 high resolution * or APO lenses, not average or poor ones.

 exacerbated by a full frame sensor which uses the corners of the image
 circle that are getting cropped out by an APS-C camera. In short,
 those who want a full frame DSLR are either going to have to use their
 best lenses with it, or procure some.
 
 My reply:
 
 I keep telling that to all those funky boys begging Pentax for a full
 frame camera and counting on good lenses of the past they already own and
 treasure. Once FF will be available, you'll have to buy a whole new lens
 outfit based on new-generation lenses (provided they will be made
 available) or be satisfied with so-so performance.
 
 That's well known by Canon and Nikon shooters, and mostly neglected among
 dreaming Pentaxians. In brief, putting together a Pentax FF outfit won't
 cost you less than switching to Canon or Nikon, the advantage being you
 won't have to do that all at once.

24MP is getting lose to the diffraction limit even at large apertures and very 
good lenses, and then the blur will ingressen with reduced opening. At f/11 I

 Really? I've never before heard the suggestion that aperture affects

 frequency thing, the more of the shot is in perfect focus the more
 chance that moire will affect something. Blurred areas are naturally
 low-frequency signals.

Re: K-3 Silver

[DagT]

Head of the FB group of Pentaxians in Norway has had K10D, K-5 in silver, and 
has already ordered the silver K-3. He expects the 2000 will be sold out very 
soon or already. Five K-5 were preordered in Norway but only one arrived 
through the official channels.

So if you want one you have to order now.

 Hi
 Some guy at Flickr said that he wanted the silver version, without the grip,

 included).
 
 I think that the Silver edition actually is quite cheep. You get the grip 
 and one extra battery and a leather strap for appr. 250 Euro more. That's a 
 very reasonable pricetag. I usually pay 250 Euro for the grip alone - no 
 silver, no leather strap and no extra battery.
 
 I guess I'll order the silver version very soon - it's simply beautiful!
 And I happen to own three silver limited lenses - 31 mm, 43 mm, 77 mm. 
 They af VERY nice, beautifully manufactured lenses, that can produce very 
 fine images.
 
 It's funny, that they only make 2000 copies of the Pentax K-3 Silver edition.
 I guess they are all gone in early November!Regards

 This is somethingt that has been brewing in my mind for a while.  I didn't 
 have time to do more than just spew it out, without editing.  And it
 was a real challlenge trying to phrase it as there are people out there
 doing a lot more work than you realize, and not come across as I do
 all this stuff for you, what are you going to do for me?.  I hope 
 I succeeded.  
 
 If you are reading this, chances are that I've taken photos of you. I have 
 nearly 1,600 people on my friends list, and I'm pretty sure it's not because 
 of my sparkling personality. My social awkwardness is not legendary, but it 
 is no secret. The reason that most people connect with me on social 
 networking sites is because I'm one of the people that gets decent photos at 
 those events where the cell phone photos always look like crap.  In just 
 about any social group there are a few of us, generally three or four, that 
 you see at the various events, taking photos.
 Something like half of the photos ever taken, have been taken in the past 
 year or two. To a first approximation, everybody now has a camera with them 
 all the time.  You might call it a phone, but it's also a camera.  Meanwhile, 
 the performance of dedicated cameras have improved at the exponential rate 
 that Gordon Moore noticed several decades ago.  So, not only can just about 
 anyone take a photo at any time, but there's a decent chance that photo will 
 look OK, or at least the objects in it will probably be recognizable.  But in 
 our various social groups, there are three or four of us who fairly regularly 
 hear someone admit that their photos don't turn out as well as ours.  
 There's a dirty secret that the people who make cameras won't tell you.  
 While cameras have advanced to the point that you no longer need to have a 
 good grasp of photographic fundamentals to take a pictures that is reasonably 
 well exposed, and even has subjects in focus, if you don't know your aperture 
 from a hole in the ground, chances  are you won't take many good photos.  
 Sure, you'll get lucky now and then. Throw enough darts in the general 
 direction of the dart board and a few of them will hit the bullseye, but 
 quite frankly, most of your photos will be crap, particularly in anything but 
 favorable light.
 What camera companies will tell you is that to get good photos, you need good 
 (read expensive) cameras and lenses.  This is true to a point.  A good 
 photographer can get beautiful artistic photos with just about any working 
 camera that you put in their hands, but there are times when you simply need 
 the right tool for the job.  If you want pictures of people dancing in a room 
 that is too dark to comfortably read in, you are going to need a pretty good 
 camera body, a decent lens, and in addition to knowing how to use them, 
 you're going to need a decent computer for processing those photos.  You can 
 get these things on the cheap, relatively speaking, but if you're passionate 
 about photography chances are that you've spent well over a thousand dollars 
 on your kit.  Actually, chances are that you've spent quite a few times that 
 on your kit, but if you're creative, you might be able to take and process 
 good photos in challenging light for under two or three thousand dollars.
 So, those people getting better photos than you did so because they spent the 
 time to learn the basics of photography, and they spent more time practicing, 
 and they spent a fair chunk of money on decent camera and computer gear. I'm 
 not even going to start on the time, expense and effort involved with film 
 and darkroom, I've Been There, Done That, and while it has it's appeal, it is 
 beyond the scope of this discussion, and possibly even sanity in this day and 
 age.
 These are arguably reasons enough to appreciate the people taking those 
 photos of you dancing, riding bikes, playing guitar. racing cars or whatever. 
  But we've barely even started.
 If we're taking photos at an event, there are things that we're not doing, 
 and most of them are the reasons that we started going to those events at the 
 first place. If it's at a dance, and I'm taking photos, there isn't a pretty 
 girl in my arms moving to the music.  If I'm at a class and taking photos, 
 I'm missing a lot of what the teacher is saying, because while the teacher is 
 talking, I'm also looking at the light, thinking about when something 
 interesting is going to happen, taking care not to disturb class myself and 
 very little of my brain is left over to absorb what is being taught.
 I'm not saying that taking photos isn't fun.  It is a lot of fun, or we 
 wouldn't be doing it on our own time, and giving away the photos for free.  
 There are a lot of reasons to give them away for free.  The big

 Very Effective.  I like the way that the statue seems overwhelmed by
 the vastness of the sky, as if liberty is faced with a struggle
 against overwhelming odds.  It also works on a purely visual level.

 Very interesting, Dag. I didn't know Latvia had its own Statue of Liberty. 
 You live  learn. I followed it up on the web  was soon inundated with 
 pop-ups offering travel packages. I even discovered that my brother (who 
 lives in NZ) was a customer!

Re: Behold the K-3!

Sure, but I love the K-5 body, so if this is true it makes me excited. :-)

 It might be the real thing, but if so Ricoh kept the basic body that hasn't 
 changed all that much since the K-7, so its not particularly exciting.

Re: PAW192 - Wing

Hmmm, tanks Bruce, Marco and Ann.

Somehow the comments slipped through some filters and I didn´t find them before 
now. Sorry about that.

But yes, I think one reason why I take these pictures of birds is that in some 
way the sense of freedom lost is so strong.
